FAYETTEVILLE — Officials at Fort Bragg are doubling the reward being offered for information in the case of a driver who struck and killed a soldier last year.

The Fayetteville Observer reports that the Army Criminal Investigation Command is offering a $10,000 reward for help in identifying the driver of a late model white Chevrolet Impala involved in the fatal hit-and-run. The original $5,000 reward was announced in December.

Officials said the car was being driven recklessly when it struck an Army Humvee that was part of a larger convoy on Sept. 19.

Authorities said one soldier died and two others were injured when the Humvee rolled over. The soldiers were assigned to the 4th Military Information Support Group.
